It’s difficult to believe it can be September already, especially since some of us spent much of the summer waiting for some warm weather. However, it is September, with school starting, many other activities getting back in gear, and a number of things going on at the Fosston Community Library Arts Center.
Music lessons at the art center will resume midmonth, after the sign-up open house from 4-6 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 13. Once again, piano, guitar, and voice lessons will be offered. Instructors are Lora Lee Saeter, Kay Carlsen, Luke Dorman and Orland Aspen.
At 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 15, there will be a program on Internet safety presented by Mike Norland of the Polk County Sheriff’s Department. If you’re concerned about what your children might be doing on-line, you’ll want to attend. (Or if you’re afraid you may get into trouble yourself while surfing the Internet, you should probably be there.)
There are a couple of after-school movies scheduled this month. On Monday, Sept. 21, The Pirates Who Don’t’ Do Anything will be shown especially for children K-sixth grade, and on Tuesday, September 22, How to Eat Fried Worms is intended for seventh through 12th graders and shown in observance of Banned Book Week
Also, the month of September is Library Card Sign-up Month, so if you don’t have a library card, stop by and get one. It’s free and gives you access to an astonishing number of books, magazines, CDs, DVDs (and video tapes), even art work, not just here in Fosston, but all over the state. All you need is some form of ID showing your address.
The used book sale is coming up in October, and the library is accepting donations of new or gently used books, magazines, CDs, cassette tapes, DVDs, and video tapes. Drop them off at the library during library hours, or if you just have a few things you want to donate, but them in the book drop.
Coming up in October - the Todd Green concert on Tuesday, Oct. 5. To quote from his press release:
“Todd has astounded audiences across the country with his diversity on a multitude of string, flute and percussion instruments from all over the world. His performance will be enhanced by digital samplers, which allow him to record and over-dub instruments one by one, making him a one-man-orchestra of unique and exotic instruments. As fascinating to watch as to listen to, Todd intersperses his playing with entertaining explanations of the music and the instruments. Prepare to be amazed!”
His presentation is supported by the Performing Arts Fund, a program of Arts Midwest funded by the National Endowment for the Arts, with additional contributions from the Minnesota State Arts Board, General Mills Foundation, and Land O’Lakes Foundation.
It is also made possible in part by a grant provided by the Northwest Regional Arts Council through funding from the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Minnesota State Legislature.
